Father Mark hails from Greenville, Mississippi. He’s a purveyor of all things MS Delta and Mississippi. He started thinking of the priesthood in elementary school due to the example of good priests at his home parish. He was a mascot of his high school, (Choctawhatchee HS, FWB FL), and went on to become a CVICU Registered Nurse before going to seminary. Ordained in 2019, St. John is his first assignment as Pastor. He has served at St. John's since May 2022.
